I am due to go to the dentist in August and I am worried, sometimes I find it hard to chew certain foods or it may take me two or three attempts to eat it. as this happened when I cracked a tooth last year, or have accidently chip a tooth or filling.
I do have an issue with my teeth not coming together, and I don't know over the years this has cause me problems.
My Dad still helps me brush my teeth.
but I don't know whether it my anxiety playing up.
I done the crime of googling
and have read it is could be a sign of gum disease, oral cancer/oesophagus cancer or dysphagia (hard to swallowing food) sometimes I am swallowing food more slowly, but I can still food and drink.
I have never asked my dentist how their do a oral screening exam. as in my late 30s (37 years old) I don't smoke or drink or take drugs
I do go dentist every three months (had a gap in 2020 due to covid19
